Hi Ollie. What an awesome model 👍 You really need some buffers on your locomotive seat! Once it's received a lick of paint the wagon will look amazing 👌 Stay safe mate, kind regards GWR
Great models and interesting Video. The website for 3dprollingstock says down for maintenance but also says that the web shop is now closed. Do you know if they are stopping production of these kits?
I missed the start because of other notifications not letting it through but I watched the post here! Very good, Ollie. I was wary of the plastic wheels, maybe need a copper/steel band for the flanges but they did alright and it's not as if they'll be hauling heavy weights much. A new future for 5" gauge rolling stock. Nice one. Excellent build. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Cheers mate!
When you stick two parts using dowels, drill a small hole into the base of the dowel hole, (in a hidden place), to let air out when you press the parts together. this ensures that the pressure at the bottom of the dowel-hole does not push the adhesive out, or push the parts apart.
@@WardleRestorations If the adhesive is a thin slow-setting type, there could be sufficient pressure to exude the glue. Obviously this would not happen if the hole was veerry long, or open at the other end.
Hey Ollie, Looks like an excellent wagon and nice to see the construction process too. I've been following their progress since they released the gunpowder wagon and looking forward to seeing what else they produce; hopefully some narrow gauge prototypes in 5 inch! I'm currently finishing up 3 slate wagons for 5 inch gauge. Just a suggestion on improving the look of the wagon; a bit of filler or epoxy putty to fill the gaps between the joins of the parts with a bit of sanding to finish would take it to the next level. Look forward to more to come! Take care man.
what a lovely comment with lots of kind words! thank you so much! Would love to see some of the slate wagons! And agreed I think a bit of filler would finish it off nicely! All the best mate
Hey Ollie, sorry I missed the premier due a very strange phenomenon called work lol. First week back after what seems forever. A great piece of rolling stock, it's hard to believe it's been printed wow !!!! You will soon need your own loco shed to store your stock lol. Another great video Ollie thanks for showing it, your a star :) :) :) Take care stay safe.
Thanks as always for the continued support mate, its appreciated! Yeh might have to get a shed just for the 5" gauge haha! Stay safe mate hopefully see you in future premieres so you can try out the new emojis!
Hi ya Ollie, that was great. It looked like a fairly straight forward, easy build. I’m assuming this company produces other wagons as well. Very cool. Pretty reasonably priced. Will you be painting weathering these two when completely built? That will be fun. I look forward to seeing them run. Bye.
I think if that was the case I could always add a metal strip or something to the wheel however after many hours of running there’s been no wear at all! Yet...
Cool.. that should be pretty easy to do with a CR-10 S5... The tricky part is 3D printing locos in OO. We are almost there, I think you'll see fully 3D printed OO gauge locos later this year from our project. I think our trackside3d.co.uk point machines might actually scale up to 5" gauge.. :)
@@WardleRestorations Definitely, especially at a cost of about 2p per gram, it will really make model railways more affordable. We've been working on this since 2018, we've scaled up from a pair 3D printers up to over 20, its almost there :)
Hi Ollie.

I have the buffers but not had time to fit them! Glad you enjoyed mate!
Looking fantastic ollie, just a need a 5" gauge pannier tank to go with that now 😉
Keel up the good work and stay safe
James
Thanks James, and completely agree if you fancy donating me one? ;) stay safe mate!

hi mate he is no longer making wagons but the STL files will be available for purchase for those who have 3D printers!

Thanks Flymo! Im hoping the wheels will stand the test of time but we will have to see!
I love this! I’ve just started in 5 inch gauge so will be needing some stock to pull.
Glad you enjoyed! Lots more 5” gauge content on the way over the summer

Oh I didn’t think of that! I thought that having loads of space behind the dowel would prevent that from happening!!

Will bare that in mind for the next kit thank you
That’s a great wagon! Massive compared to tabletop scales. Did you put any extra weight in it?
No extra weight at all, worked fine as is!
Great build mate looks great behind the class 20, look forward to the 20's debut Ollie
Thanks m8 👍
Hi Ollie looks like a winner as not too difficult to put together but looks very good..............Cheers Kev
thanks Kev, glad you enjoyed!
Nice one Ollie...very enjoyable..and cheaper than most OO gauge loco's. The shape of things to come maybe? All the best.
Hope so!

looks good! and for the price is evan better ! great vid/ premier!
Thanks Mark!
amazing kit and only £150. it less that a lot of oo gauge locos haha
Exactly Matt it puts things into perspective 🤣
Really cool work by 3Dp, Ollie. The wheels are hard plastic or metal? If plastic, are you worried about them wearing out faster? Great video!
Yes they are hard plastic however after several hours of running there were no signs of wear at all!

Yeh Norman they have a great selection of wagons to choose from and very well priced too! Will get them painted up very soon
Hi Ollie! Just wondering where on the website do you find these please?
Harri
Not available anymore I don't think!
Very good . Would this cope coupled to a loco then a riding car for a raised track ?
Rick Parsons I will test theory on ground track next time I’m there, il put it between my loco and the carriage and see how it does!
If not metal wheels wont they wear quite a lot on steel track ? Just wondering :)
I think if that was the case I could always add a metal strip or something to the wheel however after many hours of running there’s been no wear at all! Yet...

Well feel free to drop me an email I’m sure there’s some bits we can work on together in the future!
